Quoted from delt31:I hate to be the Debbie Downer but I call them like I see them and this is no different.
there are folks that refute the remakes saying they are garbage and originals will always be better. This add disputes that in the clearest way....... Rewind just two years ago and this game is gone at 3k+ in value.
This reminds me of the current restored Monster Bashes that are smoking nice but still advertised at 9.9 and not moving. The obvious problem is the remake is right around the corner and listed at probably 8.5 k for the LE. I would be extremely skeptical of originals at this point. All of you elitests that need the original.... They don't get nicer than this....Why haven't you grabbed this yet?....... Exactly
The remakes have pulled the “rareness” value bump out of the equation, for sure. But I don’t think this is an “original vs. remake” decision for buyers, as much as it is an “AFM for $7000 vs. brand new Stern Premium for around $7000” decision buyers are having to make.
If a guy was in the market for a $7000 pin, there are soooo many other brand new games out there to choose from. AFM is a great game, but is limited in coding compared to these new games. Toss in video displays and the amazing graphics starting to develop, and a $7000ish Iron Maiden Prem or add a little more for a DialedIn is where the pinball dollar starts competing.
